So I clicked on a thread I had been commenting on and this appeared across my screen. Couldn't see an X to close it and it didn't disappear. Came off the thread and back on and it's gone again now. Strange. Hmm

It seems to happen mostly when I go on my "I'm on" page.

I have only noticed this happening today.

It's annoying.

The GiffGaff ad taking over my screen on the mobe site is driving me off MN for now. Unbearable.

Morning all,

So sorry about this, tech are very much aware and looking into it. We will flag again that it's still an issue, though.

Gif Gaff for me this morning as well. On iPod - with Safari.

ohidoliketobe · 20/11/2016 09:20

Giff Gaff for me too this morning.
Only happens for Giff Gaff ad for me, but happens every time that ad appears (I.E. always covers the page never been usual small top bar size).
On Android ( Samsung S7), Chrome browser.

*happened

It's the weekend so I don't think they will do anything until Monday. It's happens this way in the past.
For a site so big I think it's really bad they don't have out of hours support. Members of the site have to moderate inappropriate threads overnight. It's ridiculous.

MermaidofZennor · 20/11/2016 08:30

And again, twice, in quick succession.

I think your ad space is being trolled. Geoffrey again?Hmm🤔

Mummyshortlegz · 20/11/2016 08:02

I'm continually having to refresh the page. It's absolutely dire. I know the content is nothing to do with you but your ad space is broken!

insancerre · 20/11/2016 07:52

I'm on my iPod because I'm having problems on my kindle fire with mumsnet freezing
Now I'm having problems on my iPod with giant ads
It's like mumsnet is trying to get rid of me by making the site unusable

insancerre · 20/11/2016 07:48

I got this this morning

Come the fuck on MNHQ, this is not a hard thing to fix.

Thereshegoesagain · 20/11/2016 07:39

It feels worse this morning, has happened 3 times now.
On an iphone website, not the app.

dailymailarecunts · 20/11/2016 07:14

Mnhq??? Please let us know you at least have tech locked in the shed working on it?? It's a right pain in the arse!

Hoped something would have improved when I logged on this morning.

Unfortuneately not, still unusable.

More disappointing is the lack of response from MN. Even a quick ' we know and we are dealing with it' would help, but i guess the site is so big now that they really feel they don't have to bother. Lose a dozen posters? Meh, plenty more out there.

Shame the Daily Mail don't pick up on these threads.

Will try again later.......

MermaidofZennor · 20/11/2016 05:47

Taken these three screenshots in the space of a few minutes. Mumsnet - wtf now???? First there were the stupid pop ups that buzzed and now there's these enormous banners that make your site unusable.

It's all very well needing adverts but at this rate you will have no-one to advertise to Angry. V pissed off.
